“Following on from the success of the other North East Fake Festivals in Tynemouth, Whickham and Chester-le-Street, we were very excited to be given the opportunity by South Shields Council to bring one of our events to Bents Park,” says Bec Evans, licensee for South Shields Fake Festival. “

Bents Park is a great venue with a history of delivering brilliant live music, and we have an awesome line-up of world-class tributes to build on that reputation.

“I believe South Shields and Bents Park will be a brilliant addition to the Fake Festival calendar, and it will be a fantastic way to finish the summer.”

Early bird tickets are on sale from the Fake Festivals website until July 29 and priced: £15 adults, £8 10-17 year olds and £38 family (two adults and two children). Children nine and under get in for free.
